Broadcasting live from Stiver’s Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, Longshore and McKnight dove into the NFL Draft’s first round, highlighting a quiet night for quarterbacks with only two selected — Cam Ward to the Tennessee Titans and a surprising Jackson Dart to the New York Giants. Dart is following two other Ole Miss QB alumni who were drafted in the first round many years ago, Eli and Archie Manning. John Longshore and Barry McKnight discussed why Jaylen Milroe and Shedeur Sanders fell out of the first round, critiquing Sanders’ pre-draft interviews and raising concerns about the NIL era’s impact on player attitudes. They also criticized ESPN’s draft coverage, particularly its repetitive references to Nick Saban’s recruiting misses and the crowded festival-like scene at Lambeau Field.
